Pet armor is a WalMart knock off of Frontline. I personally haven't used it, I stick with the tested version, Frontline. Yes it costs more, but it is proven to be safe.

I'm with Freedom on this one!!

Its made of Fipronil which is a neurotoxin. Its "considered" safe for dogs and cats but highly toxic to rabbits, rodents, and some birds. I have my reservations on all pesticides though, eventually they're almost always recalled after a few decades.

I haven't used it. I surely don't trust it. I would find a safer route.

I have used PetArmour for my cat and PetArmour plus for my dog. My dog has sensitive skin, so we always have to be careful what we use on her anyway.

It works just as well as Frontline does, except it seems to take longer to work. I personally prefer using Frontline, but if you're in a fix and you really need some relief for your pets, PetArmour is okay.

If your pets do fine on Frontline, then there's no reason why they wouldn't do fine on PetArmour.
